Helldivers 2 grunts capture sightings of a returning faction while the game's director desperately restarts the propaganda machine: "The Illuminate are already here"

Helldivers 2.

Keep your head down, Helldiver, blue sniper beams (that may or may not exist) are rampant. Helldivers 2 players have been sharing footage of what seems like a new unfriendly faction in the game, though the shooter's director is determined to suppress such anti-democratic lies. 

Helldivers 2's Galactic Map has a good amount of free space with the bug critter Terminids and the robot army Automatons only taking up half the table. Developer Arrowhead Studios then has space aplenty to add new baddies and some players are now convinced that a returning faction, The Illuminate, is already in the game.
